I am not saying to ban it from being legal to carry a pistol nor to ban handguns. That is up to each person, of course.

Not really. People, even evil, not too bright people, know that there are many gun owners here in Florida. They also know that many gun owners live here in the Villages. It is that deterrent that keeps us safe. An armed society is a polite society.
